Adult Swim announced today that NEWSREADERS, a new series from the creative team that brought you the Emmy(R) Award-winning comedy CHILDRENS HOSPITAL, will premiere on Thursday, January 17th at midnight (ET/PT). Get a sneak peek below!

NEWSREADERS is an absurd take on the television news magazine format, a show that goes behind the stories nobody else thinks are stories - because they're not. NEWSREADERS is the news magazine with more gratuitous nudity than any other news magazine.*

Created by CHILDRENS HOSPITAL executive producers Rob Corddry (HOT TUB TIME MACHINE, THE DAILY SHOW WITH Jon Stewart), Jonathan Stern (THE TEN; NTSF:SD:SUV::) and David Wain (ROLE MODELS, WET HOT AMERICAN SUMMER), with Emmy(R) Award-winning producer Jim Margolis (THE DAILY SHOW WITH Jon Stewart) serving as show-runner, Newsreaders will explore the vital issues that actually don't affect us every day, from hard-hitting investigations to harder-hitting heartwarming profiles. The series is produced by Abominable Pictures and Warner Bros. Television Group's Studio 2.0.
